Shōden-in, Buddhist temple in Hidaka, Japan
Located at the foot of Mount Koma, Shoden-in Temple features multiple historic structures including the Amida Hall and a traditional entrance gate decorated with wind and thunder deities.
Founded in 751 during the Nara period, the temple gained prominence when Tokugawa Ieyasu granted it 15 koku of land following his establishment in the Kanto region in 1592.
The temple houses nine designated cultural properties, including a national important cultural property bell cast in 1261 and wooden statues of Buddhist deities from different periods.
Visitors can access Shoden-in via a 30-minute walk from Komagawa Station on the JR Hachiko Line or a 15-minute drive from Sayama-Hidaka Interchange.
The temple serves as the 26th station of the Musashino 33 Kannon Pilgrimage and maintains a memorial tower for Korean residents who perished during historical events.
